You might want to consider getting a low-cost AMD graphics card, there are plenty of RDNA2 GPUs at around $100 now. Alternatively, if your computer supports SAM (Smart Access Memory) or ReBAR (Resizable BAR) in the BIOS (or through a BIOS update for the motherboard), then an Intel Arc A380 is usually around $100 too. Both will perform significantly better and get you out of the hole of legacy NVIDIA drivers that are going to EOL. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! -- _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
